HZSOUND Heart Mirror Pro Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C
  • Expect a patchy tonal profile that makes instrumentation feel mismatched. EQ is almost mandatory to tame the response.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • The tuning renders a cramped window into the music, with nuance fading fast. Expect grainy textures to creep in.
Bass D
The bass sits quietly in the background, providing only faint support. Live recordings lose their stage thump.
Mids D
Tonal balance in the mids is erratic, with certain notes leaping out unnaturally. Certain notes leap out while others vanish.
Treble D
Treble response is uneven, jumping between dull spots and sharp peaks. Peaks poke out unpredictably.
Details D
Modest detail presentation that sacrifices texture and masks subtle nuances. It conveys the basics but not the nuance.
Imaging D
Stereo cues appear but wobble, leaving the panorama feeling imprecise. Center image lacks solidity.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.

Rose Technics Star City 5 Pro Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C+
  • A mostly enjoyable signature keeps things listenable despite a handful of quirks. It handles most playlists without major complaints.

Average Technical Grade

C+
  • The presentation is steady if unspectacular, holding onto essential details when the music stays simple. Fine details occasionally slip through the cracks.
Mids C+
It presents a stable midrange foundation suitable for everyday listening. Clarity is serviceable without standing out.
Treble C+
The top end is tidy and serviceable, adding air without overdoing it. Extension is decent for casual listening.
Dynamics B
The performance feels robust, with satisfying punch and natural transitions. Nuances are easy to follow.
Soundstage C+
Stage expands beyond the shoulders and finally hints at layers, though vertical cues stay muted. Depth cues begin to emerge.
Gaming C+
Fundamental left/right positioning with limited depth perception. Works for non-competitive gaming but lacks precision.
